Have a site that just shows items(my menu) without the ability to buy online

CoffeePeople42 — Wed, 19 Nov 2025 17:23:00 GMT

I have a website and I just want to list all the items and their variations without the ability to buy online.

When I turn off Accept online orders in Square Online it makes it look like I don't have the items for sale when in fact, I do.

See the picture below

Is there a way to get a website that just shows the menu?

Hi CoffeePeople42,

What you have in mind could be a Feature Request. I'm thinking that you also just create an information type page where as you could add a page verses trying to use the shopping cart features. One other thought here, I noticed that the Header section says "Order, pay, and we'll have it waiting ......". Since you only want to display the menu, the Header wording is also confusing as it appears that you can order online. Just my thoughts of course - perhaps others here have a few additional suggestions.

Thanks for the feedback. I'm planning on changing the rest of the copy on the website too reflect that customers cannot order through it. So it sounds like there is no way to just display a menu like restaurants.

I don't think there is a way to display your menu just like restaurants because what you have in mind is different from the available options - what I'm thinking is that you can create a page with the info you need - remember, the page is just info. Square has specific methods for the various types of businesses - If I'm understanding you, all you want is a page that displays your menu however, it does not allow ordering - basically this is just an info page - yes ! I'm thinking that this can be done easily but, I'm not sure how you envision how it should look like and/or function. Again, just my personal thoughts.

I want this feature too. I specifically want to display my menu using Square "items" in order to leverage the SEO benefits it comes with. Items are structured data, as opposed to typing out a plain menu in paragraph tags.
